wrench , and rubber mallet .
As you assemble the elliptical exerciser, use the drawings below to identify small parts. The number in parenthe-
ses below each drawing is the key number of the part, from the PART LIST near the end of this manual. The
number following the parentheses is the quantity needed for assembly. Note: Some small parts may have
been preassembled. If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it has been preassembled.

6. Identify the Right Link Arm (10), which is
marked with a “Right” sticker. Apply a small
amount of grease to the axles on the Right Link
Arm and to two 5/8" Wave Washers (102).
Then, slide a Pivot Spacer (71) and a Wave
Washer onto each axle.
At the same time, slide the Right Link Arm (10)
into the right Upper Body Arm (12) and into the
Right Pedal Arm (8).
Attach the Right Link Arm (10) to the right
Upper Body Arm (12) with a 5/16" x 1" Patch
Screw (81), a Large Axle Cover (94), and a
5/16" Washer (104).
Then, attach the Right Link Arm (10) to the
Right Pedal Arm (8) with a 5/16" x 1" Patch
Screw (81), a Small Axle Cover (67), and a
5/16" Washer (104).
Tip: If you have a hard time working the Link
Arms (10, 11) all the way into the Upper
Body Arms (12) and the Pedal Arms (8, 9),
try working them in halfway and then tight-
ening the 5/16" x 1" Patch Screws (81) to
pull them the rest of the way in.
Repeat this step for the other side of the
elliptical exerciser.

9. Plug the Power Cord (55) into the power socket
at the rear of the elliptical exerciser (see HOW
TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD on page 10).
IMPORTANT: If the elliptical exerciser has
been exposed to cold temperatures, allow it
to warm to room temperature before plug-
ging in the power cord. If you do not do this,
the console displays or other electronic
components may become damaged.
The ramp will calibrate automatically when
the elliptical exerciser is plugged in for the
first time.

8. Identify the Right Handlebar (31), which is
marked with a “Right” sticker and orient it as
shown. Attach the Right Handlebar to the right
Upper Body Arm (12) with two 5/16" x 1.5"
Button Bolts (73) and two 5/16" Nylon Locknuts
(106). Make sure that the Nylon Locknuts are
in the hexagonal holes.
Repeat this step to attach the Left Handlebar
(7) to the left Upper Body Arm (12).

7. While a second person holds the Console (60)
near the Upright (6), connect the console wire to
the Upper Wire Harness (97). Then, connect the
console pulse wire to the Hand Pulse Wire (65).
Insert the excess wire downward into the
Upright.
Tip: Avoid pinching the wires during this
step. Attach the Console (60) to the Upright (6)

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be grounded. If it should mal-
function or break down, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk
of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. Plug the power cord into an appro-
priate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances. This product is for use on a nominal
120-volt circuit. IMPORTANT: The elliptical exer-
ciser is not compatible with GFCI-equipped out-
lets.
A temporary
adapter may
be used to
connect the
power cord to
a 2-pole
receptacle as
shown at the
right if a prop-
erly grounded
outlet is not
available. The
temporary adapter should be used only until a prop-
erly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified
electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in
place by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle out-
let box covers are not grounded. Contact a quali-
fied electrician to determine if the outlet box cover
is grounded before using an adapter.
HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
Due to the size and weight of the elliptical exer-
ciser, moving it requires two persons. Stand in
front of the elliptical exerciser, hold the upright, and
place one foot against one of the front wheels. Pull on
the upright and have a second person lift the handle
on the rear of the frame until the elliptical exerciser will
roll on the front wheels. Carefully move the elliptical
exerciser to the desired location, and then lower it to
the floor.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly on your floor
during use, turn one or both of the leveling feet
beneath the rear stabilizer until the rocking motion is
eliminated.
DANGER: Improper connection
of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in an increased risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service-
man if you are in doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the product—if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
